Loved-up Sol Campbell has married his long-term girlfriend at a fooball star studded ceremony.
The Arsenal defender, 35, tied the knot with Fiona Barratt, 29, after a five-year relationship with the interior designer.
Fellow footballers Ashley Cole, Andrew Cole, Rio Ferdinand and David Seaman turned up in their finest threads to witness the event at St Andrews Church, in Corbridge, Northumberland.
The glamorous guests then partied the night away at Sol's 18th Century mansion in nearby Hallington.
Rio Ferdinand and wife Rebecca took advantage of the sunshine to wear their summer best, but the Man United player's Miami Vice style outfit looked more than a little out place in the rural north.
Goalie David Seaman and girlfriend, Dancing on Ice skater Frankie Poultney, were all smiles as they turned up for the nuptials.
Meanwhile, love rat Ashley Cole preferred to keep a low profile as he ducked to avoid wellwishers taking photos of their sporting heroes.
The pair met while Fiona, granddaughter of Geordie property tycoon Sir Laurie Barratt, was working for Kelly Hoppen - Sol's former girlfriend.
After splitting with Kelly in 2004, the footballer and employee became smitten with each other and started dating a year later.
Astonishingly, Fiona left Kelly's home design business in 2006, taking a commission to redecorate her new lover's home with her.
Sol proposed a year ago with a £100,000 ring and we can see why he was so keen to snare his lovely bride - with beauty and brains, Fiona's a WAG with a difference.
